Cannabis DNA Test— Who knew?
Who knew there is a DNA test so you no longer need to experiment with various cannabis strains that could potentially give you unpleasant results and find the best products for your needs? Well, there is a company providing that service for patients and consumers right here in southern Missouri.
Dynamic DNA Laboratories Cannabis DNA Test will help you understand the way your body metabolizes and reacts to cannabis. Discover 13 genetic traits that can show you how to maximize your experience, promote cannabis health benefits, and avoid unwanted side effects. Take the guesswork out of dosing and pick the right product for you, the first time.
The Dynamic DNA Laboratories team in Springfield, MO, has over 35 years of experience in research, testing, pathology, and crime laboratories, and has been published in multiple scientific journals.
At Dynamic DNA, all testing is conducted in-house at its state-ofthe-art CAP-accredited and CLIA-certified laboratory. It holds to the highest of molecular testing lab standards and ensures your DNA and data are always kept safe and secure.
How a DNA Test Can Help You Optimize Your Cannabis Use
The way your nervous system and body react to cannabis is dependent on your genes. Understanding how your genes metabolize cannabis can help you achieve the optimal experience, minimize undesired side effects, and boost cannabis health benefits. Dynamic DNA Lab offers cannabis DNA test kits that help you pick the right product and ensure you take the correct dose from your first use.
All It Takes Is a Cheek Swab
Dynamic DNA Laboratories will send you everything you need in the cheek swab kit to take a quick and painless sample from the comfort of your own home. Mail it back to the lab in the same pre-paid package, and they’ ll do the rest. For most tests, you’ ll get an email notification that your results are ready within three weeks of the day the lab receives your sample.
How the DNA Test Optimizes Cannabis Use
DNA testing helps to identify genetic markers that show how your body will respond to a single cannabis product or a combination. Dynamic DNA’ s cannabis test provides you with personalized test results that tell which strains of cannabis are most compatible with your profile.
Most cannabis compounds belong to the molecular class referred to as cannabinoids, including THC and CBD. The body’ s homeostasis center, known as the Endocannabinoid System( ECS), mediates their biological and physiological effects.
Although the body produces endocannabinoids naturally, sometimes your body’ s balance is thrown off, which results in various disorders of the nervous and immune systems. By introducing external cannabinoids to your body, these compounds have been found to alleviate the negative effects of stress and inflammation by stimulating the receptors located all over the body.
Because everyone has a unique structure based on their genes, the way these receptors react to external cannabinoids can be very different. When you consume cannabis products, you want to have the most personalized experience to suit your genetic makeup. That’ s where our testing kits come in.
Dynamic DNA’ s scientists analyze your results and can determine the best CBD-to-THC ratio for different cannabis and hemp products on the market, so you no longer have to worry about endless experimenting with strains that could potentially yield unpleasant results.
Pain Management
Dynamic DNA’ s specialized DNA tests identify genetic variants associated with pain threshold and inflammation. Its scientists base their recommendations on your unique pain threshold and the areas of your body that are most sensitive to pain.
Help With Sleep
Dynamic DNA’ s scientists look into the quality and duration of your sleep, as well as insomnia and other sleep disorders. Using the test results, you can adjust your doses to enjoy the relaxing and soothing properties of cannabis and CBD to promote better sleep.
Minimize Side Effects
The DNA test looks into how your body breaks down cannabinoids. It gives insight into potential side effects from certain cannabis products and combinations, such as anxiety, dry mouth, and dizziness.
